I live in Perris California and it is a town of about 45,000 people,. This is small comparied to Riverside (It has at least 400,000 people). Gasoline prices in Perris are out of this world! It is 2.63 per gallon in Perris and it is 2.49 in Murrieta. Murrieta is 16 miles south from here with a population of about 75,000. Smaller towns have always had higher prices of gasoline. Most of the people in Perris are uneducated and hispanic and I am told this price discrimination is a form of racism. How can I stop this from happening? Soy Milk is also more here. 2.96 at Wal-Mart in Perris, while at 2.50 at Wal-Mart in Hemet. What can I do? I already buy most of my gasoline in Murrieta where it is 15 cents cheaper. I am in a town that has 6% of the people with a bachelors, so this town really needs help. thanks Sandra G.
